The Devil and Sherlock Holmes by David Grann
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Killers of the Flower Moon and The Wager--and one of the most gifted reporters and storytellers of his generation--comes a "horrifying, hilarious, and outlandish" (Entertainment Weekly) collection of gripping true crime mysteries about people whose obsessions propel them into unfathomable and often deadly circumstances."[Grann is] one of the preeminent adventure and true-crime writers working today."--New York Magazine
Whether David Grann is investigating a mysterious murder, tracking a chameleon-like con artist, or hunting an elusive giant squid, he has proven to be a superb storyteller. In The Devil and Sherlock Holmes, Grann takes the reader around the world, revealing a gallery of rogues and heroes with their own particular fixations who show that truth is indeed stranger than fiction.
